Labour win the new York and North Yorkshire Mayor. Sunak's constituency is located there. He won't even realise though, he's too focused on delivering for the people of the country.

Job done if he doesn't start there til after the summer window imo. They can have the little rat after that.

McGuinness wins NE mayor.

Focus, bitch. With your black logos and your tinted windows and your mid-life crisis.

It would be foolish of me to give you the benefit of the doubt given your personal history.

The fucking robot of a PM says the results are disappointing, but he's..... wait for it..... "focused completely on delivering for the people of the country". Meanwhile the country spent yesterday focused on letting him know how well they thought that was going.

Are you just looking at how much Houchen's vote share has come down by? Which is 19 point something? You take half of that and half of how much Labour's has gone up by. Add them together, and that's the swing.

It's 16.5.

This qualifies as a victory for them atm.

This is the result the stupid cunts have been crowing about all morning. Halfon calling it the "biggest comeback since Lazarus" even though they lost 5 seats and thought they had clung on by one, but now apparently haven't.

Thread. A perfect summation of Sunak's purgatory.

Aye, if the Teesport thing blows up before the election, Sunak is in the BLAST ZONE.

Tees Valley has gone to Houchen by the sound of it. Labour conceding but pointing to the swing.

Fair play. Gives him a proper telling off and Anderson sounds scolded.

Windmilling randoms on Gossie high street later if anyone fancies it.

Which will be even worse with additional tactical voting in a GE. They can hang on to November for me, it's only gonna get worse for them if they do.

James Daly on Sky basically saying "if Houchen wins tomorrow it's all fine". That'll go down like a shit sarnie with ousted Tory councillors across the nation, I'm sure.

I'm up! And so far, it's TORYGEDDON! Rushmoor has fallen to Labour, which even Blair didn't manage. RUSHMOOR HAS FALLEN! Blackpool result coming in the next half hour or so.

Almost certainly assumed the rules wouldn't apply to him.
